Your favourite Nash moment

Beating the Spurs in four?
Back-to-back MVP?
Playoff runs to the Western Conference Finals?
Overtime games against Nets/Mavericks?
Shootout between Nash and Arenas?


What was your favorite moment during the Nash era?

For me, it was the 2006 playoff run where Amar'e was out with his injury. It was the best basketball I've ever seen in the NBA and the Lakers series was just incredible. I will never forget how Marion got the offensive rebound and Tim Thomas knocking down the three. Nash was unbelievable in that series.

Thinking about it: I don't care what anybody says I want him to retire as a Sun.
Hill on Nash going to the Lakers: “That’s like transferring from Duke and going to Carolina.”

Getting hit in the eye and receiving stitches after being hit by Tim Duncan, then coming back and leading the team to a sweep of those damn Spurs. Watching the game, only Suns fans can know how that felt.

It was just amazing.

This was it for me. That whole series.

I didn't have access to most of the games back in 04-07 so I missed most of them even though I've always followed the team.

First that comes to mind was that playoff game against Dallas where he took over in the 4th to force overtime and carry us to the win. Massive performance. Still remember Cuban having a cry haha

Game 1 of the 07 Spurs series. Nash draining 3s and keeping us in the game with his nose busted wide open. What a fing warrior. That whole series was incredible. The plays at the end of game 4 which led up to the Horry hip check, two straight behind the back passes to Stoudemire for the easy dunks iirc, also remain high in my memory.

That was the only series where Nash went bananas in scoring because Mavs made him one and played tightly on everyone else.

Watching that Nash verse Spurs video, makes you wonder if any one player has been so physically abused by another team. Granted much of the abuse happened in one series, but man that's a lot. Broken nose, knee to the balls, hip check into the boards, cut eye, not to mention all the other grabs and pushes by Bowen.

The Suns just won't be the same if he leaves. :(

Yep - that was Nash in a nutshell. And the playoff game in '09 (?) against the mavs where he took a three with a couple seconds left, missed, we passed it straight bak to him and heit the next one.

There have been so many and hopefully more to come. One game that stands out to me that hasn't been mentioned was his duel with J.Kidd in Jersey.
